I actually use Arch but don't use Arch Audio =). I install the necessary
packages myself, AUR is your best friend. Arch Audio and the guys behind
it are great though.

I use the BFS patchset most of the time now, helps with lowering latency
quite a bit on my system similar to -rt, but with much better stability.
Check out kernel26-ice (turn on BFS) or kernel26-rt-ice (same PKGBUILD
different defaults). Obviously the -ice patchset is important to me =)
may not be to you though.

Other than that, just use the wiki and forums, good places to find info.
